I'm pretty sure you can appeal a grade for any class.


You can, but this is an NCAA appeal so who knows what that means.

is this going to be a story line for the game that A&M is playing a hindered LSU?

unfortunately no. see, we could be playing you with our entire 2nd team and our fans should think we should still beat you by 40.

whereas if you lost your deep snapper, it would be our coaching staff's fault that we only won the game by a TD when we obviously should've destroyed you.

welcome to LSU fandom

Are you always this negative? Seems like every post you make is attacking someone or something.

You can't pin anything on the school. I'd make a guess that close to 100% of Trinity students that went to LSU (or any college) graduated.

They are saying it may be a cheating issue, in which case the NCAA could rule him ineligible for a year. If he is ruled ineligible then him hinting at going pro makes more sense.

yeah, whatever, captain condascending .. the majority of your fricking posts are top of mount olympus shite .. you're one to talk .. no, wondering aloud how someone can be an honor student in high school and struggle academically in college as an athlete with all the resources that athletes have compared to a common student .. sounds to me like some of that falls in the lap of the private school ..

I don't think Mike Slive is lined up to hand-usher this deal thru and "carry the juice" like he did for Cammy-Cam

well .. everyone has culpability in that case .. and the school is a part of it .. small private schools operate differently .. you never know if the star athlete is being graded a bit differently either ..

Oh BS. Culpability begins and ends with the individual student. Every time.

How terrible for such a smart young man. Could it be that he did not enroll for next semester? Most likely it is one of those "buy a paper" deals, or that one of his tutors did a paper. Guess we will never know. Trinity in Natchez is a great prep school. No doubt, he has the ability, but the time may have been the problem. Terrible slip up on LSU's part. He will be missed by me. Love watching him run!!
